2024 Map of Carlisle

About this map

The Broad River serves as a central artery for this region, winding south past Shelton Island and the community of Herbert. This stretch of the river valley is deeply marked by early transit and settlement patterns, featuring the historical site of Smiths Ferry and several long-established burial grounds including Fish Dam Cem and the Cool Branch Church Graveyard. The town of Carlisle serves as a hub in the northwestern corner, where Janie Glymph Goree Blvd and King Kennedy St intersect, reflecting the local importance of street-level naming and genealogically significant sites like the nearby Hill Cem. Much of the central terrain is protected within the Sumter National Forest, preserving the wooded character of the drainages around Brocks Creek and Coxs Creek.
